180 acres, but only 2.6 miles of trails? The article makes it seem like there are tons - “complete with a 2.6 mile trail system.” Is 2.6 miles really a “system”?

Today I got up, had a shower and my muscles felt stiff so I shall not run today.

Pretty much.

Big brains evolved due to capacity for exercise →

In the study published in the journal PLoS ONE this month, anthropologists David A. Raichlen of the University of Arizona and Adam D. Gordon of the University at Albany conclude that the brain size in mammals may have evolved in conjunction with increases in...

Intervals
57-55-54-53-52-52-51-50 aren’t bad splits for some 300s - at least they were going in the right direction. And the track is pretty much brand new, and it overlooks downtown St. Louis, so I had a nice skyline to look at every time I rounded the back corner.

My new blog →
I start medical school in a little less than a month, and I’ve decided to make a new, separate tumblr blog for all of my medical school and medicine/health-related posts. That way, if you’re interested, I’ll be posting more material there, and if you aren’t interested, I’ll stop cluttering up your dashboards with medical stuffs.
New blog is: migomd.tumblr.com

Good analysis of the game.
One of the most exciting sporting competitions I have seen in a while. My reaction to the 122+ minute goal rivals my reaction to this score.
[Also, why can’t I figure out how to reblog it directly from his site? It’s tumblr powered. Other people have.]
